It's well past time that we have a more nuanced, meaningful and honest conversation about financial vulnerability from potentially catastrophic medical expenses.

Bottom line: The more you use your health insurance, the more likely your insurance carrier will deny your claim.... "About one in five insured adults who used emergency room services (22%) or mental health services (22%) say they had a denied claim, though there is no way to tell from the survey if the denials were for claims related to these specific services. Finally, people who identify as LGBT are nearly twice as likely to experience denied claims compared to other consumers (30% vs. 17%)"
